Re: Guelph Airpark for sale

As of today, a reliable source has informed me the restaurant at Guelph Airpark is closing, effective the end of March 2011. I was told, "...the airport is closing". I'm not sure about the school, fuel pumps, runways, private owners, ect. If true, it's a sad day indeed. Hopefully the TigerBoys will ...

Come to Guelph... 1-800-599-7539

Not trying to get into a pizz'n contest over which is better, a college vs a private FTU.

This is great time. The school, as most, is trying to fight the weather, but that works into your favour.

Re: Aviation International Canada Guelph, ON

I've worked with over 75 instructors in my +20 years in aviation and Scott Peters is BY FAR the best instructor I have had the pleasure to work with. He's forgotten more than most of us will ever learn.
FYI He also did my rating.
